First of all, XzDog does this kind of stuff. Truthfully at heart, he is nothing but a hipocrite, nothing more. When he sees a game he doesn't like, he ridicules it, then attempts to freak out the user by "ambiguously hacking" when he doesn't even know your own I.P. address. And also he doesn't even know you have a router or firewall, resulting in the fact that IF he hacks you, you can report him to the web police.

Bottom-line, when people come and tell you "I'm gonna hack you", it means they're bluffing. True hackers keep their identity shrouded, especially in a place so secure as this. If they get caught, they could be banned from BYOND, or result in a dramatic mood change from the public, i.e: they won't like you very much.

And besides, being hacked isn't losing your life. Sure it could mean the difference of your $2,000 computer, but the fact is, many, many people are "overly scared" of the reputation and the bidding of what a hacker can actually do. Just recently I've had my email attacked and held by a hacker, luckily with nothing useful in it, and it's just been a pain in the neck to gain it back.

Well, I know XzDog is a big hipocrite, and I have called him one on the forums before (probably why he did this) I mean the guy gos around wasting his life going in zeta rips calling the people names when he himself thought he was all cool and owned his little zeta. And I also know he is a joke who most likely can't hack.. But I just figured if I could report him, he could maybe be banned for therts or something.. he is a really annoying person >.>

*buzz* wrong! but thanks for playing! 'crackers' do viruses, 'hackers' solve problems.

http://www.clueless.com/jargon4.2.0/html/entry/hacker.html
"...6. An expert or enthusiast of any kind. One might be an astronomy hacker, for example. 7. One who enjoys the intellectual challenge of creatively overcoming or circumventing limitations. 8. [deprecated] A malicious meddler who tries to discover sensitive information by poking around. Hence `password hacker', `network hacker'. The correct term for this sense is cracker."

get it right - don't believe the media hype.

:p

regarding 'reporting people' - if you feel you have been threatened and/or can provide proof of an attack to your computer, send logs and pertinent info to the support form (http://www.byond.com/support/support.cgi)

The pot calling the Kettle black doesn't change the fact that the kettle is black.

In real life, I would agree, deal with people yourself, but when a person is harasshing a number of people in a online community, the staff should take it upon themselfs to fix the problem.

You shouldn't harass them because it's just creating useless garbage on the pager, and threads like these. And as previously mentioned, it's hypocrisy. There's no need for you to do any of that.

They are outcasts huh? Last time I checked it is "Create your own net dream" not "XzDog's net dream". Yeah, so some of them are possibly using a old reused source, but no one is forcing you to play these games, and it dosen't give you a right to bother these people.

XzDog, is it YOUR game? No it isn't. Its not your job to deal with it. And you are also not a police officer or a Byond mod. You still dont have a right to spam or flame people.
